      foreign /fôr′ĭn, fŏr′-/

      adjective

      1. Located away from one’s native country.  “on business in a foreign city.”
      2. Of, characteristic of, or from a place or country other than the one being considered.  “a foreign custom.”
      3. Conducted or involved with other nations or governments; not domestic.  “foreign trade.”

      Don’t be disingenuous , even in native Russian it has distinction of worth:

      …explanation of the concept [near abroad] in Russian: " ‘The term originally had an ironic nuance,’ said the historian Ivan Ivanovich. ‘People spoke of nastoyashchyeye za rubezhye, “the present-day abroad.” But now the words have acquired a purely informational meaning, in order to distinguish the new states of the C.I.S. [ Commonwealth of Independent States, a title now in the dustbin of history ] from the “original” abroad.’ “
